Ooops, I just saw that I messed up the netstat command in my original post. I just fixed it.

If you tried the command as I originally posted it, it would not have worked. Please try it again.

P.S. It's best to use su/sudo and run the command as root.

It doesn't do that for me. There's an option in the settings dialog advanced tab to manage remote programs, perhaps that option is checked?]]>Sat, 17 Mar 2007 14:48:08 +0000http://forum.xfce.org/viewtopic.php?pid=13654#p13654http://forum.xfce.org/viewtopic.php?pid=13627#p13627
When I run netstat -tulp | grep LISTEN I can see that Xfce is running a server. Here's a snippet of the output:

tcp 0 0 *:1026 *:* LISTEN 3261/xfce4-session

Based on the above output, it looks like Xfce has opened port 1026 and is listening on all interfaces. I don't know if my terminology is completely correct, but the jist of what I am trying to say is that Xfce has opened port 1026 and, if it were not for the firewall that I am running, this port would be exposed to the Internet. Which is, of course, not good.
